Sweet! I'm making an android game and UTF8 emojis are great for UI icons. I'm currently using the Google Noto one but it's certainly not usable in games. I'm waiting for Godot 4 to allow me to display android native emojis from the system font, but I'm not sure yet it will really work. I now want to try if I can use this font for my icons, as long as godot allows me to load a font and pick UTF8 character by their codepoint.

Why is noto a no-go for games? License?
- AkshitGarg 5y ago
  Noto uses Apache-2.0 [1] which should be fine for most stuff. [1]: https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emoji/blob/main/LICENSE https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emoji/blob/main/LICENSE

    So does that mean I can publish a game using those icons, and earn money with micro transactions?

      Yes, under certain conditions. In particular pay attention to the requirements for redistribution under clause 4 and the lack of trademark license specified in clause 6.
